Hail, the Conquered Hero

I love Dick Cavett.

And you will, too, after you read this following piece, "Hail, the Conquered Hero", which eloquently describes the Imus situation. Mr. Cavett is a brilliant, cerebral man and a master of the English written word. I highly recommend his other works as well.

This might be the most eloquent, rational, and truthful article written about this mess.

Imusfan, when I saw those comments I could barely believe what I was reading. I could see one or two like that. But half the commenteres comparing this to lynchings and nooses and et al? And I loved all the people who said he wasn't allowed to write about this because he was a white man. Wow.Those comments made me angry...I may write a rebuke.

You need to try and contact Dick Cavett directly let him know what is happening, it will become a story in itself.

Dick Cavett, has been at the crossroads of many a timely story, remember it was old feed from Dick Cavett's old show, that was used against Sen John Kerry in the last Presidential election, if memory serves me.

I asked Marty- Chickaboomer, if she knew any way to contact Mr Cavett. Marty blogs entertainment news and has been covering Imus. I don't know that she is an Imus fan but she has stated, she thinks he got fired unfairly. I left her a comment under her last Imus piece.
